Specifically, a gate of the first initialization transistor T4 is input with a first scan signal Scan 1, the first electrode is input with an initialization signal VI, and the second electrode is connected to the first node Q.

FIG. 2 shows a timing diagram of a pixel driving circuit of this application in the display phase. In the pixel driving circuit of the present application, a compensation transistor T3, a first initialization transistor T4, and a second initialization transistor T7 are N-type transistors, and a switching transistor T2, a driving transistor T1, a first light-emitting control transistor T5, and a second light-emitting control transistor T6 are P-type transistors.

In reset phase t1, the second scan signal Scan 2 is at a high potential, the switching transistor T2 is turned off. The third scan signal Scan 3 is at a low potential, the compensation transistor T3 and the second initialization transistor T7 are turned off. The light-emitting control signal EM is at a high potential, and the first light-emitting control signal T5 and the second light-emitting control signal T6 are turned off. The first scan signal Scan 1 is at a high potential, the first initialization transistor T4 is turned on, and the initialization signal is input to the first node Q to pull the potential of the first node Q down.

In data write-in phase t2, the first scan signal Scan 1 is at a low potential, the first initialization transistor T4 is turned off. The second scan signal Scan 2 is at a low potential, the switching transistor T2 is turned on. The third scan signal Scan 3 is at a high potential, the compensation transistor T3 and the second initialization transistor T7 are turned on. Since the potential of the first node Q is low, the gate of the driving transistor T1 and the second electrode are short-circuited after the compensation transistor T3 is turned on. A voltage difference is generated between the gate electrode and the first electrode of the driving transistor T1 through the threshold voltage of the driving transistor T1. At this time, the driving transistor T1 is turned on, and the switching transistor T2 inputs the data signal Vdata to the second node A. The data signal Vdata includes compensated threshold voltage and is input to the gate of the driving transistor T1, thereby compensating for the threshold voltage deviation of the driving transistor T1. The written data signal Vdata charges the first node Q through the driving transistor T1 until the voltage of the first node Q becomes Vdata-Vth, and the driving transistor T1 is turned off. In addition, since the second initialization transistor T7 is turned on, the anode of the light-emitting device D1 receives the initialization signal and is reset.

In light-emitting phase t3, the light-emitting control signal EM is at a low potential, the first light-emitting control signal T5 and the second light-emitting control signal T6 are turned on, so as to conduct the current from the power supply high-potential signal line VDD to the driving transistor T1 and conduct the current from the driving transistor T1 to the anode C of the light-emitting device D1. At this time, the driving current flowing through the light-emitting device D1 satisfies the following formula: I=½K[Vdd−(Vdata−Vth)−Vth]²=½K[Vdd−Vdata]². The light-emitting device D1 emits light under the action of the driving current I.

In the embodiment of the present application, the compensation transistor T3, the first initialization transistor T4, and the second initialization transistor T7 are oxide transistors, and the switching transistor T2, the driving transistor T1, the first light-emitting control transistor T5, and the second light-emitting control transistor T6 are low-temperature polysilicon transistors. In light-emitting phase t3, taking advantage of the low leakage current characteristics of the oxide thin film transistor, the compensation transistor T3 can keep the potentials of the first node Q and the third node B stable, the first initialization transistor T4 can keep the potential of the first node Q stable, and the second initialization transistor T7 can keep the potential of the anode C of the light-emitting device D1 stable. It can alleviate the problem of light-emitting brightness changes caused by the leakage current of the light-emitting device D1, and can especially alleviate the problem of poor display effect at a lower refresh frequency. Simultaneously, by utilizing the characteristics of high mobility and high driving speed of low-temperature polysilicon transistors, in data write-in phase t2, the response speed of the switching transistor T2 and the driving transistor T1 is faster, so that data can be written quickly, preventing insufficient charging due to a long turn-on time, and in light-emitting phase t3, the response speed of first light-emitting control transistor T5 and the second light-emitting control transistor T6 is faster, so that the driving current I quickly flows into the light-emitting device D1, so as to prevent the display image lag caused by the slow turn-on speed. This application uses a pixel driving circuit that combines low-temperature polysilicon transistors and oxide transistors and utilizes the high mobility and faster driving speed of low-temperature polysilicon transistors, as well as the low leakage current characteristics of oxide transistors, which can make the display effect of the display panel more stable and make its power consumption less.

The second connection line 804 is connected to a gate of the driving transistor T1 and a second electrode plate 403 of the storage capacitor C1 through a sixth via-hole 006, and is connected to an oxide active layer of the first initialization transistor T4 through a seventh via-hole 007, to form a second electrode of the first initialization transistor T4. The third connection line 805 is connected to a polysilicon active layer of the driving transistor T1 and a second light-emitting control transistor T6 through an eighth via-hole 008 to form a second electrode of the driving transistor T1 and a first electrode of the second light-emitting control transistor T6, and is connected to an oxide active layer of the compensation transistor T3 through a ninth via-hole 009 to form a second electrode of the compensation transistor T3.

As shown in FIG. 3, a passivation layer 60 is formed on the third metal layer 800, and the material of the passivation layer is usually selected from at least one of silicon nitride (SiN_x) or silicon oxide (SiO_x). A first planarization layer 70 is formed on the passivation layer 60, and the material of the first planarization layer 70 is usually selected from polyimide.

As shown in FIG. 3, FIG. 4, and FIG. 11, a second source and drain layer 900 is formed on the passivation layer 70. The material of the second source and drain layer 900 includes at least one metal or an alloy selected from Mo, Al, Cu, Ti, or the like.

The second source and drain layer 900 is patterned to form a first blocking member 901, the first blocking member 901 is connected to a power supply high-potential signal line 802, and a projection of the first blocking member 901 on the first metal layer 400 covers at least part of the first electrode plate 403 of the storage capacitor. The first blocking member 901 is connected to the power supply high-potential signal line 802 through a fourteenth via-hole 014. Since the projection of the first blocking member 901 on the first metal layer 400 covers at least a part of an area of the first electrode plate 403 of the storage capacitor, corresponding to the coverage area, a coupling capacitor can be generated between the first blocking member 901 and the first electrode plate 403 of the storage capacitor. The coupling capacitor and the storage capacitor are superimposed so that the ability of the circuit to store charges is increased. The first electrode plate 403 of the storage capacitor serves as a gate of the driving transistor T1. Therefore, the first blocking member 901 can improve the stability of the gate (i.e. the first node Q) of the driving transistor T1. Even if leakage current is generated in the circuit, it can be released by the coupling capacitor to reduce the influence of the leakage current, so that the brightness of the light-emitting device D1 changes less, and the stability of the pixel driving circuit is improved. When the projection of the first blocking member 901 on the first metal layer 400 covers the entire area of the first electrode plate 403 of the storage capacitor, the coupling capacitance generated is largest, and the effect of improving the stability is best.

The projection of the first blocking member 901 on the oxide active layer covers a channel region of the compensation transistor T3 and a channel region of the first initialization transistor T4. Since the oxide active layer is more sensitive to light, and the material of the first blocking member 901 is an opaque metal, it can block the ambient light incident from a side of the first blocking member 901 away from the oxide active layer, and prevent it from causing interference to the compensation transistor T3 and the first initialization transistor T4, thereby improving the stability of each oxide transistor.

In addition, since the material of the first blocking member 901 is metal, it can be used as a hydrogen barrier layer to prevent the influence of hydrogen ions generated in the process of the upper film layer on the oxide active layer and prevent causing the threshold voltage of the oxide transistor to drift. Therefore, the stability of the circuit is further improved.

As described above, the first blocking member 901 corresponds to the driving transistor T1, the compensation transistor T3, and the first initialization transistor T4 can simultaneously function as a light-shielding layer, a hydrogen barrier layer, and a coupling capacitor to improve the stability of the pixel driving circuit. The manufacturing process is simple and the cost is less.

The second source and drain layer 900 is further patterned to form a second blocking member 902, the second blocking member 902 forms a second drain of the second light-emitting control transistor T6, is connected to the second electrode of the second light-emitting control transistor T6 through a fifteenth via-hole 015, and is connected to the anode of the light-emitting device D1 through a sixteenth via-hole 016. The projection on the oxide active layer covers the channel region of the second initialization transistor T7. Similarly, the second blocking member 902 can block the ambient light incident from a side of the second blocking member 902 away from the oxide active layer, preventing it from causing interference to the second initialization transistor T7, and improving the stability of the second initialization transistor T7. The second blocking member 902 can also be used as a hydrogen barrier layer to prevent the influence of hydrogen ions generated in the manufacturing process of the film layer above it on the oxide active layer and further improve the stability of the circuit. As described above, the second blocking member 902 can simultaneously serve as a second drain, a light-shielding layer, and a hydrogen blocking layer of the second light-emitting control transistor T6, which together improve the stability of the pixel driving circuit, the manufacturing process is simple, and the cost is less.

As shown in FIG. 3, a second planarization layer 80 is formed on the second source and drain layer 900, and the material of the second planarization layer 80 is usually polyimide. The anode 1000 of the light-emitting device is formed in the second planarization layer 80 and includes a single layer or a stacked layer of conductive material with a high power function and a reflective material. The conductive material of high power function may include indium tin oxide (ITO), indium zinc oxide (IZO), zinc oxide (ZnO), or indium oxide (In₂O₃), etc. The reflective material may include silver (Ag), magnesium (Mg), aluminum (Al), platinum (Pt), palladium (Pd), gold (Au), nickel (Ni), neodymium (Nd), iridium (Ir), lithium (Li), calcium (Ca), or a mixture thereof.

The anode 1000, the organic light-emitting layer 1010, and the cathode together constitute a light-emitting device. In this application, the display panel is an organic light-emitting diode (OLED) display panel, and the light-emitting device is an OLED light-emitting device. The top layer is the encapsulation layer 1020, the material of which includes a combination of organic material and inorganic material.

In one embodiment, the projection of the polysilicon active layer at least partially overlaps the projection of the oxide active layer on the substrate 100. In the pixel driving circuit of the prior art, each transistor is a low-temperature polysilicon transistor, and the active layer of each transistor is arranged in the same layer and connected to each other, so it occupies a large space. In the pixel driving circuit of the present application, the polysilicon active layer and the oxide active layer are arranged in different layers, and their projections on the substrate 100 at least partially overlap. Therefore, the occupied space can be reduced, so that an entire pixel driving circuit occupies a smaller area, thus reducing an area of the opaque region, increasing the light transmittance of the display panel, and improving the display effect.

In one embodiment, a plurality of second-layer scan signal lines correspond to the channel regions of each oxide transistor form the bottom gate of each oxide transistor, and the projection of the channel region on the substrate 100 falls within the projection range of the corresponding bottom gate on the substrate 100. Since the oxide active layer is more sensitive to light, and the material of the second metal layer 500 is an opaque metal, and the projection of the channel region on the substrate 100 falls within the projection range of the corresponding bottom gate on the substrate 100, it can block the ambient light incident from a side of the second metal layer 500 away from the oxide active layer and prevent it from causing interference to each oxide transistor, thereby improving the stability of each oxide transistor.

In one embodiment, the plurality of second-layer scan signal lines are input with variable voltages when the oxide transistors are operating, so as to adjust the threshold voltages of the corresponding oxide transistors. Since oxide transistors will have threshold voltage drift after long-term use, the threshold voltage will have a positive or negative bias, so that the written data signal cannot be displayed correctly. At this time, a potential signal can be input to the bottom gate of each oxide transistor to correct the threshold voltage drift and stabilize the driving current flowing through the light-emitting device D1. Since the threshold voltage will drift to varying degrees depending on the length of time, it is possible to input a variable voltage during the operation of the oxide transistor after detecting the magnitude of the threshold voltage drift, so the effect of adjusting the threshold voltage is more accurate, and the stability of the circuit is better.

In addition, since the material of the second metal layer 500 is metal, it can be used as a hydrogen barrier layer to prevent the influence of hydrogen ions generated in the manufacturing process of the underlying film layer on the oxide active layer, and prevent the threshold voltage of the oxide transistor to drift. Therefore, the stability of the circuit is further improved.

As described above, the second metal layer 500 forms bottom gates corresponding to each oxide transistor, which can simultaneously function as a light-shielding layer, a hydrogen barrier layer, and threshold voltage adjustment, and improve the stability of the pixel driving circuit. In addition, the manufacturing process is simple and the cost is less.

It can be seen from the above-mentioned embodiments that the pixel driving circuit of the present application configures the compensation transistor T3, the first initialization transistor T4, and the second initialization transistor T7 as oxide transistors, and improves the structure of each film layer, which together improve the stability of the pixel drive circuit and improve the display effect.

By configuring the compensation transistor T3, the first initialization transistor T4, and the second initialization transistor T7 in the display panel as oxide transistors, and improving the structure of each film layer, the stability of the pixel driving circuit is improved, and the display effect is improved.

This application also provides a display device. The specific structure can be seen in FIG. 1. The display device includes: a first initialization transistor T4 configured to input an initialization signal VI to a first node Q under control of a first scan signal Scan 1; a switching transistor T2 configured to input a data signal Vdata to a second node A under control of a second scan signal Scan 2; a driving transistor T1 configured to drive the light-emitting device D1 to emit light under control of potentials of the first node Q and the second node A; a second initialization transistor T7 configured to input an initialization signal VI to an anode of the light-emitting device under control of the third scan signal Scan 3; wherein the first initialization transistor T4 and the second initialization transistor T7 are oxide transistors, and the switching transistor T2 and the second initialization transistor T7 are different types of transistors.

In one embodiment, the switching transistor T2 is a low-temperature polysilicon transistor and is a P-type transistor, and the first initialization transistor T4 and the second initialization transistor T7 are N-type transistors.

FIG. 2 shows a timing diagram of various signals of the display device in the display phase. In the embodiment of the present application, the first initialization transistor T4 and the second initialization transistor T7 are oxide transistors, and the switching transistor T2 is a low-temperature polysilicon transistor. In light-emitting phase t3, taking advantage of the low leakage current characteristics of the oxide thin film transistor, the first initialization transistor T4 can keep the potential of the first node Q stable, and the second initialization transistor T7 can keep the potential of the anode C of the light-emitting device D1 stable, which can alleviate the problem of light-emitting brightness changes caused by the leakage current of the light-emitting device D1, and can especially alleviate the problem of poor display effect at a lower refresh frequency. Simultaneously, by utilizing characteristics of high mobility and high driving speed of low-temperature polysilicon transistors, in data write-in phase t2, the response speed of the switching transistor T2 is faster, so that data can be written quickly, preventing insufficient charging due to a long turn-on time. This application uses a pixel driving circuit that combines low-temperature polysilicon transistors and oxide transistors and utilizes the high mobility and faster driving speed of low-temperature polysilicon transistors, as well as the low leakage current characteristics of oxide transistors, which can make the display effect of the display panel more stable and make its power consumption less.

In one embodiment, the projection of the polysilicon active layer at least partially overlaps the projection of the oxide active layer on the substrate 100. In the display device of the prior art, each transistor is a low-temperature polysilicon transistor, and the active layer of each transistor is arranged in the same layer and connected to each other, thus occupying a large space. In the display device of the present application, the polysilicon active layer and the oxide active layer are arranged in different layers, and their projections at least partially overlap on the substrate 100, so that the occupied space can be reduced and the entire pixel driving circuit occupies a smaller area, thus reducing the area of the opaque area, and the light transmittance of the display device is increased, and the display effect is improved.

In one embodiment, the projection of the channel region of each oxide transistor on the substrate 100 falls within the projection range of the corresponding bottom gate on the substrate 100. Since the oxide active layer is more sensitive to light, and the material of the second metal layer 500 is an opaque metal, and the projection of the channel region on the substrate 100 falls within the projection range of the corresponding bottom gate on the substrate 100. Therefore, the ambient light incident from the side of the second metal layer 500 away from the oxide active layer can be blocked, preventing it from causing interference to each oxide transistor, and improving the stability of each oxide transistor.

In one embodiment, the second-layer scan signal line inputs a variable voltage when the oxide transistor is operating, so as to adjust the threshold voltage of the corresponding oxide transistor. Since oxide transistors will have threshold voltage drift when they are used for a long time, the threshold voltage will have a positive or negative bias, so that the written data signal cannot be displayed correctly. At this time, a potential signal can be input to the bottom gate of each oxide transistor to correct and adjust the threshold voltage drift, so that the driving current flowing through the light-emitting device D1 is stable. Since the threshold voltage will drift to varying degrees depending on the length of time, it is possible to input a variable voltage during the operation of the oxide transistor after detecting the magnitude of the threshold voltage drift, so the effect of adjusting the threshold voltage is more accurate, and the stability of the circuit is better.

In addition, since the material of the second metal layer 500 is metal, it can be used as a hydrogen barrier layer to prevent the influence of hydrogen ions generated in a manufacturing process of the underlying film layer on the oxide active layer, and prevent the threshold voltage of the oxide transistor to drift, which further improves the stability of the circuit.

The first blocking member 901 is connected to the power supply high-potential signal line 802, and the projection of the first blocking member 901 on the first metal layer 400 covers at least part of the first electrode plate 403 of the storage capacitor.

Since the projection of the first blocking member 901 on the first metal layer 400 covers at least a part of the area of the first electrode plate 403 of the storage capacitor, corresponding to the coverage area, a coupling capacitor can be generated between the first blocking member 901 and the first electrode plate 403 of the storage capacitor. The coupling capacitor and the storage capacitor are superimposed so that the ability of the circuit to store charges is increased. The first electrode plate 403 of the storage capacitor serves as a gate of the driving transistor T1. Therefore, the first blocking member 901 can improve the stability of the gate (i.e. the first node Q) of the driving transistor T1. Even if leakage current is generated in the circuit, it can be released by the coupling capacitor to reduce the influence of the leakage current, so that the brightness of the light-emitting device D1 changes less, and the stability of the pixel driving circuit is improved. When the projection of the first blocking member 901 on the first metal layer 400 covers the entire area of the first electrode plate 403 of the storage capacitor, the coupling capacitance generated is largest, and the effect of improving the stability is best.

The projection of the first blocking member 901 on the oxide active layer covers the channel region of the first initialization transistor T4. Since the oxide active layer is more sensitive to light, and the material of the first blocking member 901 is an opaque metal, it can block the ambient light incident from a side of the first blocking member 901 away from the oxide active layer, and prevent it from causing interference to the first initialization transistor T4, thereby improving the stability of each oxide transistor.

In addition, since the material of the second metal layer 500 is metal, it can be used as a hydrogen barrier layer to prevent the influence of hydrogen ions generated in a manufacturing process of the upper film layer on the oxide active layer, and prevent the threshold voltage of the oxide transistor to drift, which further improves the stability of the circuit.

Wherein the driving transistor T1, the first light-emitting control transistor T5, and the second light-emitting control transistor T6 are polysilicon transistors. In data write-in phase t2, the response speed of the driving transistor T1 is faster, so that data can be written quickly, preventing insufficient charging due to a long turn-on time. In light-emitting phase t3, the response speed of the first light-emitting control transistor T5 and the second light-emitting control transistor is faster, so that the driving current I quickly flows into the light-emitting device D1, so as to prevent the display image lag caused by the slow turn-on speed.

The second source and drain layer 900 is further patterned to form a second blocking member 902, the second blocking member 902 forms a second drain of the second light-emitting control transistor T6, is connected to a second electrode of the second light-emitting control transistor T6 through a fifteenth via-hole 015, and is connected to an anode of the light-emitting device D1 through a sixteenth via-hole 016.
